With Donald Trump’s pick for labor secretary, Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s bigwig Andrew Puzder clearly taking the often-typical CEO mindset of ‘paying workers less is good,’ we can brace ourselves for changes to the world of labor that will indeed be jarring if predictions are correct. A recent report by Capital & Main looks at the world of hurt employees under federal contracts would experience if a Puzder agenda goes into effect.

Capital & Main chronicles five executive actions that have benefitted workers over the years via federal contractor requirements for a better workplace which could be “on the chopping block.”

Puzder has made it clear he is no fan of efforts to increase the minimum wage and is generally not a champion for the employees on the job. Will federal contractors soon be able to treat their workers the way Puzder treats the folks who work tirelessly for the bare minimum in his kitchens?

Puzder’s confirmation hearing is coming up soon (unless, as CNN reported, he gets cold feet and withdraws his name from consideration.) We can only hope that his interviewers from the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions hold his feet to the fire.
